Agreed, but then the headline should have been "Guy has a fun time spending 1,000 hours building a neat looking house."
What bothers me is the bait and switch. It's bad journalism, but I would bet that the people who find this economically or ecologically "good" would be disinclined to change the headline because something to the effect of "dude has fun hobby" doesn't have the same "social good" connotations as the current headline.
